A rash of fake bomb threats to court houses have been received in Washington, Nebraska and now Oregon.

Yesterday bomb threats were called in to the deschutes, crook and Jefferson county court houses.

chris carney with the bend police says that even though there was no actual bomb, the treat did disrupt people lives.

"Unfortunately that affects a lot of people in the community, because it is not just people going to trial that use that courthouse for things, people trying to do notices and everything else through the legal system, also use the court house"

nine threats were made on court houses in Nebraska on November 9th and 8 bomb threats were called in to Washington state court houses on November 15th.
